Brain Neoplasms:
General Considerations
1. Comprise: 10% of all tumors
2. Most common childhood neoplasms
3. Peak incidence at 5th decade
4. Supratentorial tumors in adults
5. Infratentorial tumors in childhood

Brain Neoplasms:
General Considerations
6. Different tumors in different ages
7. Primary tumors infiltrative, metastatic
well-demarcated
8. Intraneural seeding occur, but noextraneural metastasis
9. Produce neurologic symptoms by size,location, invasiveness, and secondaryeffects

Most common brain tumor in adults.
Common primary sites: melanoma, lung,breast, GI tract, kidney.
Most are in cerebrum (MCA territory).
In gray-white junctions due to rich capillarity

tumors. Amenable to surgical resection.
Single or multiple.
